    The initial set up using earc/hdmi cable. In this mode TV speakers do not work. The S50 worked fine for 3 days with sound controlled by TV remote. It suddenly stopped working with no sound. Went through set up again and still nothing. Disconnected the HDMI cable and connected via optic cable. Now getting sound thru S50, but can only be controlled with S50 remote. TV speakers do not work and TV remote must now on mute to get sound from soundbar.

    TV is a 55" Hisense roku
